Due to the impact of housing prices and economic pressures, many families now have to start planning to buy a house after they have children. After buying a house and doing the decoration, basically a family of three can be regarded as having a home that truly belongs to them.
When moving into a new house, what we are most afraid of is the problem of excessive formaldehyde, living in a house with excessive formaldehyde for a long time, but it is easy to have an accident in formaldehyde.
The number of cases of excessive formaldehyde in the house is increasing, making everyone talk about aldehyde discoloration, especially for families with children and pregnant women.
Half of the 40,000 new patients who are diagnosed every day are children. The most shocking thing for parents in the data is that children aged 2-7 years old account for the majority of children with leukemia.
We use flooring, wallpaper, paint, ceilings and other materials in our homes, as well as some wooden furniture. In this way, the floor releases a little formaldehyde, the paint releases a little formaldehyde, and the furniture releases a little formaldehyde, and the harmful substances released by these products will be distributed in the air of the entire room.
When the harmful substances released by these products are superimposed in the designated space, the content of harmful substances in the air of the space may endanger everyone's health/health. This is the additive effect of formaldehyde.
For the sake of their children's health, many parents specially chose "zero formaldehyde" environmentally friendly materials, thinking that there would be no formaldehyde pollution.
But now all the "zero formaldehyde" on the market is just a gimmick for merchants. The "zero formaldehyde" mentioned in the mouth of the merchant is just more environmentally friendly than ordinary materials.
Even if it is an environmentally friendly material, it is necessary to do a good job in formaldehyde treatment, and do not ignore a very important factor, that is, superimposed pollution.
Whether it is wallpaper, flooring, paint, coating, or tables, chairs, sofas, cabinets and other furniture, all contain a certain amount of formaldehyde.
Don't be stupid! These ways to remove formaldehyde are "pseudoscience"!
Myth 1: Onions and other formaldehyde removal
This method is said to be the most magical, but it has no actual effect on removing formaldehyde. It's just that the onion has a big flavor, which can obviously mask the taste of pollutants, making us feel that formaldehyde is gone. Fortunately, I tested it again at the time, otherwise I would have checked in, and it is estimated that it would have been miserable.
Myth 2: Put a few basins of water to remove formaldehyde
Formaldehyde is easy to dissolve in water, but I put 7 or 8 basins of water at home (about 75 square meters in my house), and it has no effect for half a month. Later, I learned that there is too little water, the efficiency of formaldehyde dissolving into it is too low, and formaldehyde is continuously released for a long time, so it cannot have a practical effect at all.
Myth 3: Vinegar fumigation
Vinegar fumigation can indeed kill some bacteria and viruses in the air, so in the outbreak season of the epidemic, both families and schools recommend vinegar fumigation, but this method has no effect on formaldehyde at all, and this method will lead to the enhancement of indoor air humidity, and formaldehyde is more difficult to volatilize in such an environment, but reduces the concentration of formaldehyde volatilization, which is absolutely self-defeating.
Children are the most vulnerable to formaldehyde
Formaldehyde generally accumulates at a height of 0.8-1.5 meters above the ground, and the concentration of formaldehyde is highest at this altitude.
Children are in the development period, organs and other aspects are still underdeveloped, the height of formaldehyde accumulation is close to the height range of children, it is easy to inhale a large amount of formaldehyde;
Children's bodies are in the stage of growth and development, the amount of breathing is twice that of adults, the absorption capacity is strong, the elimination ability is poor, the body resistance is weak, and the harm of formaldehyde to children is difficult to estimate.
Formaldehyde exceeding the standard is by no means a joke, and these abnormalities appear in the child's body, indicating that the formaldehyde exceeds the standard!
1. The child has headache, diarrhea, and throat inflammation
If the child has a headache, diarrhea and throat inflammation, many parents will use ordinary methods to treat the fever to see the child, but if the child has a fever that does not go away, then the parents are in a hurry and will send the child to the hospital for examination.
Therefore, parents should pay attention to the fact that one of the symptoms of leukemia is fever, and it is a repeated high fever.
2. Children always cry out in pain inexplicably
If the child cries out of pain inexplicably, but there is no injury in the body, don't be careless, it may hurt in the bones, joints and other places. Bone and joint pain is a common symptom of childhood leukemia, so it is important to see a doctor.
3. The child has nosebleeds and bleeding gums
If the child has nosebleeds or bleeding gums when brushing his teeth, and there are blood spots on his body, and sometimes vomiting, this is also one of the precursors of leukemia, and parents should pay attention.
So can ventilation be effective in removing formaldehyde?
According to the survey, 80% of people feel that simple ventilation can effectively reduce formaldehyde concentration, and even the vast majority of people think that opening windows for a few hours a day is enough.
But is that really the case? Now let's talk about experiments!
The experiments are as follows: firstly, the formaldehyde release source is enclosed in the experimental chamber, and the formaldehyde concentration in the experimental chamber is kept at 0.2mg/m3 after stabilization, and the temperature is maintained at 25 degrees. Then open the two ends of the experimental cabin and place it in an outdoor environment to achieve "north-south ventilation".
After a period of time after the data was obtained, the experimental chamber was sealed again to observe the change of formaldehyde concentration.
After many tests, a general conclusion has been reached: in some cases, the formaldehyde concentration can be reduced to below the national standard of 0.1mg/m3 after about 10 minutes of ventilation, and the time will be longer if the decoration in the home is complex and the ventilation is not smooth. After closing the doors and windows, the original formaldehyde concentration will be reached again in about 30 minutes.
Even if we use long-term ventilation to remove formaldehyde, it is still not enough, and it is important to know the right method.
In fact, when we remove formaldehyde, the most effective way is to use formaldehyde removal products, the use of products will not leave stains or marks on the furniture, and will not cause any harm to the family.
Therefore, you can rest assured that you can use formaldehyde removal products, provided that the products you use are guaranteed, and do not use inferior products casually. The following Xiaobian will share with you a few products that can effectively remove formaldehyde, the quality can be assured, it is Xiaobian himself who has used it, let's take a look.
1: Olvway formaldehyde scavenger:
Allova formaldehyde scavenger adopts a new "amino acid + photocatalyst" formaldehyde removal technology, which combines the characteristics of physical removal and chemical decomposition, and provides an innovative solution for the rapid and efficient degradation of formaldehyde molecules. The core is the integration of amino acid technology and photocatalyst technology. Its excellent scavenging efficiency can quickly penetrate and capture formaldehyde hidden inside structures such as plates, and then quickly decompose it into harmless carbon dioxide and water, and this decomposition process itself does not produce new harmful compounds, so it can effectively prevent the volatile release of formaldehyde from the source.
Olvway Formaldehyde Scavenger: The ingredients are safe and reliable, free of oxidants, alcohol and fragrance, and very safe for home use. Tested by professional testing institutions, the efficiency of this product to remove formaldehyde is as high as 91%, which is a favorable player for removing formaldehyde.
2: Activated carbon:
Activated carbon itself has a certain effect on the adsorption of harmful substances and volatile harmful gases, so it can be used to effectively adsorb formaldehyde, especially in the newly renovated indoor environment or in the case of excessive formaldehyde, it is an effective choice.
Three: Yiya formaldehyde deep scavenger: The composition of this formaldehyde scavenger is mild, which effectively improves the free state and the formaldehyde inside the plate, and the decomposition products are pollution-free.
